Episode 294 of the InGoal Radio Podcast, presented by The Hockey Shop Source for Sports, features an interview with Filip Gustavsson of the Minnesota Wild.

In the feature interview presented by NHL Sense Arena, Gustavsson shares some of the lessons he’s learned from playing with Marc-Andre Fleury, including a few old school tricks that he has to be careful not to overdo. It’s a great lesson on trying new things but not trying force everything. Gustavsson also talks about his experiences growing up in Sweden as a goalie, including the continuing influence of Lulea goalie coach Linda Blomquist, who many will remember as one of there inventors of RVH from an article we ran years ago, his transition to North America, the ongoing battle to keep his hands more active, and a recent change in how he manages the rush.

In the Parent Segment, presented by Stop It Goaltending U the App, we talk about changing the way we talk about goals as hockey observers and the negative affect it has if we don’t.

We also review this week’s Pro Reads, presented by Vizual Edge, which features Devin Cooley of the Calgary Flames with a great look at stance and managing screens on a 4-on-3 power play.

And in our weekly gear segment, we go to The Hockey Shop Source for Sports to dig into the debate about whether to tuck or untuck your chest protector. Can Cam get Woody to switch?
